Hey, gcc 4.0 isn't supported for kde 4.1. Sucks, but thems the breaks. File an upstream bug with KDE and hope they fix this.

[illogical1@…]

The solution is to use gcc 4.2

[bgdotmail+macports@…]

In such case, can you put gcc42 to the list of dependences?

[illogic-al@…]

You already have gcc 4.2. so adding it as a dependency isn't required. Macports requires the latest version of xcode which, on leopard has gcc42. What I do need to do is to say "compile this port with this version of gcc", but I don't really know how (good idea for a ticket) :-)

For tiger apple's gcc4.2 (provided by the apple-gcc42 port) will be necessary but the version in macports won't work, it doesn't install a c++ compiler. I've submitted an updated Portfile so that those on tiger can install apple's gcc4.2: ​https://trac.macports.org/ticket/16666. That doesn't seem to be going anywhere however. I think it's pointless to force something that currently doesn't work into the portfile (kdepimlibs won't compile w/ the macports current version of apple-gcc42).

[bgdotmail+macports@…]

I had leopard and corresponding xcode version. How do I bild kdelibs?

[blb@…]

This just came up on the -users mailing list with ​how to use gcc-4.2 from Xcode.

Hi,

I have had similar problems to bgdotmail+macports - I found kdelibs4 has some dependencies that are not listed in the port file.

I had to install pcre and shared-mime-info in order to get kdelins4 to properly configure. I am sure there are others but I cannot recall exactly which right now...

Chris

[cjones051073 (Chris Jones)]

Hi again.,

One other possible problem. kdelibs4 requires qt4-mac to be built with the +ssl variant. This is not the default so if you try and build kdelibs4 without having qt4-mac installed, qt4-mac is automatically installed without ssl support and kdelibs4 fails.

Chris

[bgdotmail+macports@…]

I have QT build with ssl support.

[bgdotmail+macports@…]

As far as I understand, I need to disable FAM(File Alternation Monitor) and Hspel as I am unable to find their ports and these are optional components

[vaulse@…]

Replying to bgdotmail+macports@…:

tried gcc4.2 got -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I get the same error.

[vaulse@…]

I rebuilt qt4-mac with +ssl and added the line "configure.compiler gcc-4.2" to the kdelibs4 portfile, and now it does build. The installation conflicts with gnome-menu, but that's beyond the scope of this ticket.

[illogic-al@…]

OK, adding the configure compiler line was on my todo. I'll do it for all the kde ports at so it'll take a while. Hopefully be done later today. I think I have a solution for the +ssl variant issue as well.

[bgdotmail+macports@…]

I did port sync and rebuilt qt4(+dbus+docs+mysql5+nis+psql+sqlite+ssl ) && phonon and everythng wen ok.

[illogic-al@…]

Almost there as of r44101

[illogic-al@…]

submitted ticket #17730 . which should take care of this completely.

[jjstickel@…]

Cc Me!

[jjstickel@…]

The kde4 ports do not automatically work on Tiger because "configure.compiler gcc-4.2" forces compiling with /usr/bin/gcc-4.2, which does not exit. Please consider the attached patch.

[jjstickel@…]

patch for kdelibs4 Portfile

[jjstickel@…]

This change is also necessary for automoc and the other kde4 portfiles.

[illogic-al@…]

on it.

[illogic-al@…]

Actually I'm going to hold off on this change. Apple's gcc has some patches not included in the gnu version. Not knowing whether or not any of the KDE code makes use of this I'm reluctant to mix 'n' match compiler versions. Unless you convince me.

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

The patch seems reasonable. Otherwise it is not possible to build it on Tiger at all.

[jjstickel@…]

Now that I have finished building kdebase4 (using the patch I suggested), I must report that the applications do not work (on Tiger)! Dolphin fails to run, and it seems that there are various bugs with kwrite. I am asking on the kde-mac email list since this may not be related to this ticket.

[illogic-al@…]

Replying to raimue@…:

If we'd just fix #16666 it wouldn't be an issue. I've used the portfile I've attached there and know it works on Tiger.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Replying to raimue@…:

It looks like this is still an issue, except that the fix now needs to occur in the kde4 portgroup (not the kdelibs4 portfile).
